SPRING’s exhibit will highlight the latest features, benefits, and applications of company’s flagship simulation software,
NCSIMUL Machine and NCSIMUL Player 9.2. Specifically, with the growing adoption of
remote and mobile software accessibility, SPRING will demonstrate its recently introduced
mobile system called
WYSIWYC® (What You See Is What You Cut).

NCSIMUL Player 9.2 will be embedded on
a fully rugged,
mobilePanasonicToughpad IP65 and shown how it is connected to machine tool controllers such as Fanuc CNCs.

With this capability, shop floor operators and managers are able
to interact remotely – in
3D and in
real time using
intuitive touch controls – with one or
several CNC machines and their
machiningprocesses, as they execute the CNC program on the machine.
3D animations of CNC machining processes, as well as related
work instruction sheets are directly accessible from the
mobile application.

REVOLUTIONIZING THE WAY OPERATORS INTERACT WITH CNC MACHINES

“What WYSIWYC means to manufacturers is that we at SPRING Technologies are changing the way operators interact with CNC machines and rethinking the way procedures are accomplished on the shop floor,” explains Philippe Solignac, Corporate Marketing Director for SPRING Technologies. “We’re offering
a unique user experience, which is very
attractive to Generations Y and Z, with true shop floor-dedicated mobility with the ultra-rugged Toughpad tablet PC. It’s fun, it uses touch technology, and
everything is digitized, including worksheets. It’s also a very effective methodology for conducting
training modules without an additional large investment.”

According to Mr. Solignac, customers are achieving at least 25% higher productivity using the combined three technologies comprising WYSIWYC. He credits that because so much
information about the program and process is immediately available that there are fewer errors, better decision making, smoother changeover between shifts, and easier multi-machine supervision.

Its “smart” solutions are integrated, intelligent, instrumented, and based on its “NCEXPERIENCE” philosophy. The NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS portfolio integrates the complete machining process, in real time, including cutting and tool libraries, post-processing, NC simulation, technical content publishing and DNC Monitoring.
